Copenhagen is a significant hub for live music, particularly renowned for its deep-rooted jazz scene. American jazz giants found a creative home here in the 1960s, and the annual Copenhagen Jazz Festival, established in 1979, has since become one of Europe's largest music events. Beyond jazz, the city boasts a dynamic array of venues like VEGA, Pumpehuset, and Loppen, hosting everything from heavy metal by bands like Mercyful Fate to indie rock from artists such as Efterklang and electronic music from labels like Iboga Records. The term "rhythmic music" also originated in Denmark in the 1970s, reflecting a local effort to legitimize popular genres like rock and jazz.
